The Brookhouse Group has tabled plans for a drive-thru lane as part of a previously planned retail unit on the Stanley Street side of the development.

A spokesman for the group said they could not confirm which chain would be taking the unit, but said they hoped to be able to give more details in late April.

Lancashire County Council have been consulted on the amended plan for the drive-thru access.

The Queen Street retail park has been planned since the early 1990s but was held up by legal wrangling over land ownership. It is being built on the site for the former Horrockses Yard and Booths warehouse depots.
